Alderwick Adventures was born from a shared love of learning, storytelling, and the kind of childhood wonder that comes from holding a real letter in your hands. Founded by a mother–daughter team—Allison, a lifelong learner, educator, and storyteller, and her mom, an artist who homeschooled five children over nearly thirty years—Alderwick Adventures grew out of a deep belief that education should feel alive, creative, and deeply connected to the world around us.

Each Alderwick mailing brings history to life through beautifully crafted stories, letters, and artifacts that arrive right to your door. Designed to spark curiosity and imagination, our adventures invite children to step into another time and place—where learning happens through discovery, connection, and play. More than a story, each package is an experience: a tangible link between the past and the present, meant to be touched, read, and remembered.

At its heart, Alderwick Adventures is about slowing down, rekindling the joy of learning together, and showing that history isn’t a list of dates to memorize—it’s a grand, ongoing story we’re all a part of.
